Pros

At one point, two years ago, I would have suggested the benefits are great and likely better than most companies I have come across.

Cons

Benefits. Marketed to employees as great, the benefits or "selling points of the company" are consistently and systematically denied. Training, Education, reimbursements, book allowance, docked maternity/paternity leave, denial of pay for required overtime, wage increases, etc. Dishonesty. Praescient Executives have been trying to sell the company for a few years now. That is fine, but something you should be honest about with employees, old or new. Even as documentation on the denied procurement made it's way to employees, Executives continue a dishonest approach. I have personally been privy to discussions with Executives and employees, where those employees are fed promise one (lie) and promise two (lie) in order to retain them or block them from going elsewhere; and staying much in-line with the core culture the company operates on, these promises are consistently and systematically revoked and denied. This includes backdoor employee salary changes without consent or contract updates, denial of promised bonuses after work completion, and "do this or you're fired" approach. High Turnover. With a retention rate in the negative, this mostly speaks the most about the company culture. The company, in it's short life span thus far, has seen three Senior Executive resignations, to include a founder of the company, and nine Directors resignations (i.e. Operations, HR, BD, Recruiting, Finance, Talent). Getting into the Consultants the company wished or attempted to retain, excluding those simply moving on for better opportunities, and resignations skyrocket past fifty. Take a moment, search LinkedIn, and contact former employees. This will be all you need to do. Litigious There has not been a former employee or business partner that the Executives have not tried to sue. I am not being hyperbolic. Again, search LinkedIn, contact former employees. These statements are based on my first-hand knowledge of the company and my direct experiences. Again, I highly recommend any individual considering this company to contact former employees.

Pros

- Offers the ability to learn, and subsequently leverage, advanced analytic tools in support of critical intelligence, military, and law enforcement mission sets. - Truly intelligent, friendly co-workers. Praescient's biggest strength is definitely the quality of their employees. - For a small company, Praescient offers a good amount of flexibility when it comes to job roles, customer and mission sets, and work locations. - Historically, executives have been willing to hold good employees on overhead when contracts end until they can find a new project for you. - Significant opportunities for (quick) career progression. - Lively home office with casual dress codes. - World class benefits (especially health care coverage).

Cons

- Historically, Praescient has been a bit dependent on Palantir to create job openings. This is still the case to a degree, though they seem to be diversifying more and more effectively.

Pros

- Excellent benefits - 100% employer-paid healthcare, dental, and vision; 401K matching. - Great, smart, talented employees

Cons

- Positions are highly misrepresented during the recruitment process. "Analyst consultants" are actually contracted customer service representatives and trainers for a partner technology company. - The job responsibilities and work environment are significantly different based on the assignment, yet this is not fully understood by recruiters or leadership -- and is not disclosed during the interview process. - Praescient leadership does not support its employees when they are being taken advantage of and mistreated by "partner" company. - Widespread assignment locations leaves most employees disconnected from the company. - Opportunities for advancement do not exist -- unless you are located near the home office. - Increased responsibilities and/or leadership roles are not recognized with increased pay. - No performance raises are given. Minuscule annual cost of living increases are the most you can expect -- even if your performance in the review period exceeds expectations.
